No Bake Cookies


 
Bring the following ingredients to a full boil in a medium saucepan for 1 minute:

1/2 cube margarine or butter
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
2 Tablespoons cocoa powder

After boiling for 1 full minute, remove chocolate mixture from heat.
Have the following ingredients set aside and ready to immediately add into the chocolate mixture:

1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup peanut butter -
(I like crunchy, but you can use smooth too.)
3 cups uncooked oats
(I like the instant oats because they are a finer texture, but you can use old-fashioned whole oats too.)

Mix well and drop onto wax paper.
Let cool at least 20 minutes for cookies to set up.
